Fletcher, I have to say your right, and I was wrong the other day. The water heater plate is still sweating like crazy, I just noticed it today, all the other days it looked fine. So now I will pull it off and reseal the whole thing. thanks
Make sure you use high temp silicone (black or red, not the clear stuff- steam melts it)
Have any of you had problems with your thermostat on the back of your shaver going out? I had a fun early morning this morning. 3AM woke up to a very chilly house. Went to investigate and it ended up being a bad thermostat. ( this is my 2nd one to go bad in 1 week) the first one didn't even make it past the first 8 hour burn.
Any reasons why this could of happened?
I had the same problem, but mike stuck the blower on. I boiled about half the water out of my OWB over the last couple days. I threw that stupid thermostat in the trash and bought a digital programmable one for $50. I just installed it tonight, but already like it better. It's got a thermometer on it so you can actually thell the water temperature.
Do you guys always have steam coming out of the over flow pipe? It doesn't sound like it is boiling, and the thermostat is set to 150 degrees.
Thanks for any help.
Mine steams pretty regularly even when not boiling. The manual says it's normal. I asked ben about it and he said I can reverse the flow of my pump, pull water from the bottom of the tank. Unfortunately for me it's not that easy, I'd need to move my Y strainer, and really spend a lot of time re plumbing everything. I'll let you know what happens with the new thermostat.
